We recommend that you use DHCP address reservation to make sure that the DHCP
server always assigns the same IP address to the interfaces of the ReadyNAS. The
MAC addresses of the physical interfaces are shown on the Network page.
Note
If you enter an IP address manually, you must provide DNS server information if you
want to access your ReadyNAS system over the Internet. For more information, see
DNS on page 168. If the IP address changes, your browser loses its connection to
your storage system. To reconnect to your ReadyNAS system, use ReadyCLOUD to
rediscover your device. See Discover and Set Up Your ReadyNAS on page 14.
